A cable management apparatus includes a first cable management member. A second cable management member is pivotally coupled to the first cable management member such that the first cable management member and the second cable management member are moveable between an extended position and a retracted position, whereby the second cable management member is positioned in a vertically stacked orientation above the first cable management member in the retracted position. The cable management apparatus may be coupled to an information handling system rack in order to manage the cables for an information handling system while using a minimal amount of space behind the information handling system.
